Scores and Updates:
Finals:
-Georgia 61, Xavier 73: It was a close game, a good game, and UGA almost pulled it out.
-Temple 61, Michigan State 72: I’ve got Michigan State in my Elite 8 — almost picked ‘em to the Final Four — so watching the first half as close as it was was kinda scrary.
-Portland State 61, Kansas 85: Like many who fall into the Kansas trap, I picked this team to go to the Finals. We’ll see if they can pull their annual choke-job.
In Progress:
-Kentucky 41, Marquette 48: It’s the only close game going on right now, so it’s the only one I’m watching. Both teams looked sloppy in the first half, but things have picked up a bit.
-Kent State 20, UNLV 45: Ballgame.
-Baylor 27, Purdue 26: See above.
-Oral Roberts 24, Pittsburgh 47: See both. Jeez.
